gnome-keyring Unexpected 'NoKeyringDaemonError'

[juan luis belmonte <jlbelmonte warp es>]

Hello.
My name is Juan Luis Belmonte. I'm working on an opensource gsm 
connection manager called wader (https://public.warp.es/wader/).

We are preparing the last fixes for the 0.3.0 release, and we have a 
little issue, that I can't understand. For storing the password of the 
connection we are using gnomeKeyring.

The project depends on network-manager,  versions 7 and greater, 
supports gsm, older ones not so we not depend on networkmanager dialing 
when network-manager version is 0.6.x

I'm attaching a little python scriptcase, of what we do  for managing 
the secrets in the keyring.

The fact is that using network manager 0.7 everything goes well, but 
using 0.6X at the moment of getting the secrets from the keyring, we get 
an unexpected  'NoKeyringDaemonError'. But the  gnome-keyring-daemon is 
already running.

We thought it was our code, but after extracting both operations of 
store and load in this script I'm attaching. Everything goes well. If 
you compare the error file and the script, you can see that the  last 
call function in the error, is present  in the testcase, but as I said, 
it works when just executing this script. Wich is 99% similar to the 
real code, it only changes the variables.

The purpose of why I am writing, is to ask you if there is a known issue 
about this,  or if you can give us an advice or some light about what 
can be happening to us.


Thank you very much for reading me.
My best regards.
